Finally catching up with all your discovery - many thanks to you both
Fired off many enquiries and will be visiting ottawa to do more research.
I hope there is a report from his superior as to how he died so that could have been communicated to his surviving mother.
New discovery
BARRETTE, Paul Emile. Pte. D.63008. 571 Iberville St., Montreal, Que. son of Joseph Barrette
he came up in my research on my great grandfather Paul Barrette -D-15141 .
Oddly enough I find nothing other than news clipping saying he went from missing in action to prisoners of war during Dieppe Raid
....weird...
my own dad kept telling me that our uncle died on Dieppe yet it was on D-day then this fellow shows up with a dad Joseph Barrette living 571 Iberville St., Montreal, ... my dad`s father was Joseph !!!
PREVIOUSLY. REPORTED MISSING,
NOW REPORTED PRISONER
OF WAR.
Regiment de Quebec.
BARRETTE, Paul Emile, Pte. Montreal
177 Montgomery Montreal census 1921
Name Gender Relation Marital status Birth
Barrette Joseph M 36 ans vendeur Married 1884
Barrette Alma F 30 ans Married 1890
Barrette Paul Emile M 6 ans Single 1914
Barrette Marcel M 3 ans Single 1917
Barrette Rene M 2 ans Single 1918
